This is a fairly new outlet that only seems to have opened weeks before my visit. Inside it's a decent size square room with an island bar and an assortment of seating. The ceiling looks unfinished and there is a wooden floor. The TVs were silent.
There are nine hand pumps with one unused and I noted the obligatory Camerons Strongarm, Abbeydale Absolution, Black Mass & Moonshine and Mallinson Ella. I went for the Black Mass (£4.60) which was in good nick albeit a bit on the expensive side.
This is a welcome addition to the centre of Cardiff and I would definitely return.
